She has staged 7 solo exhibitions of her works and participated in over 60 group shows in Australia, Italy and Germany. For many years watercolour was Eve’s preferred art medium. More recently she has explored working in aluminium and copper. She believes that for the artist it is a fascinating process to transform industrial sheets of metal into two-dimensional works of art. T. Brian Aylward T. Brian Aylward was born in 1939 at Warnham in West Sussex, UK and studied art part- time at Horsham Art School. He immigrated to Western Australia in 1968 where the light and countryside stimulated and inspired his work.

Here, Melbourne-based copyright lawyer, Sharon Givoni, considers how the laws relating to street art may be relevant to illustrators. She tries to make you “street smart” in an environment where increasingly such creations are not only tolerated, but even celebrated. 1 Street Art Melbourne, Lou Chamberlin, Explore Australia Publishing Pty Ltd, 2013, Comments made on the back cover. It canvasses: 1. copyright issues; 2. moral rights laws; and 3. the conflict between intellectual property and real property. Why this topic? One only needs to drive down the streets of Melbourne to realise that urban art is so ubiquitous that the city has been unofficially dubbed the stencil graffiti capital. Street art has rapidly gained momentum as an art form in its own right. So much so that Melbourne-based street artist Luke Cornish (aka E.L.K.) was an Archibald finalist in 2012 with his street art inspired stencilled portrait.1 The work, according to Bonham’s Auction House, was recently sold at auction for AUD $34,160.00.2 Stencil seen in the London suburb of Shoreditch. Photo Credit: Chris Scott Artist: Unknown It is therefore becoming increasingly important that illustra- tors working within the street art scene understand how the law (particularly copyright law) may apply.

Collectively we seek to achieve beautifully executed outcomes, embedded with a strong level of artistic integrity, which contribute to their context and often accommodate functional uses. We support merging public art, public space and soft landscaping to generate integrated multidisciplinary outcomes. We also believe public art can play a role in building communities, encouraging connectivity and promoting social interaction. It can stimulate the imagination, the act of story telling and provoke ideas whilst also playing a role in establishing a strong sense of place. Pamela Gaunt’s practice often explores surface and pattern while Joshua Webb’s practice commonly explores form and enclosure which are highly complimentary elements.

  • CONFLUENCE Catalogue
    CONFLUENCE Pippin Drysdale | Warrick Palmateer John Curtin Gallery, 28 Sept – 2 Dec 2018 INTRODUCTION Confluence brings together the ceramic artworks of Pippin Drysdale and Warrick Palmateer, exploring their unique collaboration, common strengths but also celebrating their differences. Both artists have created major new works especially for this exhibition, contrasting their own distinctive aesthetic language and passion for different aspects of Australia’s natural environment. One profoundly important quality that both artists share and which radiates with hypnotic authority from their finished work, is their obsessive pursuit of excellence. Palmateer and Drysdale have each refined their skills relentlessly and their extraordinary capacity to collaborate in a seamless and respectful, almost symbiotic way, to produce Drysdale’s work with such consistently inventive and striking forms over more than twenty five years, is almost miraculous. By bringing these two dedicated and exceptionally skilled artists together in Confluence, I wish to honour and explore the compelling collaborative processes through which together – and in Palmateer’s own work, alone – these two artists continue to push themselves and each other, to conjure some of the most breathtaking ceramic forms ever made in Australia. THE ART OF PIPPIN DRYSDALE In a chance encounter in the early 1990s, Pippin Drysdale was struck by the extraordinary throwing skills of a young potter by the name of Warrick Palmateer. Drysdale readily acknowledges how privileged she is that Palmateer has been so loyally committed to their collaborative enterprise over such a sustained period. The fact that Palmateer has thrown all of Drysdale’s vessels over the last twenty six years, is testament to just how quickly their deep bond was forged, and how vitally the convergence of their energies seeking perfection continues to inspire them both and fuel their continuing collaboration.

  • Street Art – Legally Speaking
    Legally Speaking: Street Art Intellectual property lawyer, Sharon Givoni, spends a vast amount of time working with professional photographers. While most cases involve the photographer taking legal action, they can also easily find themselves as the defendant. One example is when photographing street art, and Sharon has kindly taken the time to discuss this area of law. Street art has gained credibility as a legitimate way for artists to communicate their works to the public outside of the confines of the mainstream art world. The art takes various forms, ranging from bright alleyways to large-scale murals, sanctioned and unsanctioned alike. ‘More than ever before, photographers are an essential part of this scene,’ Lou Chamberlin wrote in her book, Street Art This photograph taken by Melbourne. ‘Known as paint spotters, they spend their spare Chris Scott shows graffiti in time chasing and documenting new pieces as soon as they an incidental fashion go up.’ A consequence of this, however, is the raft of legal issues that could potentially arise for photographers of street art. Imagine the following scenarios: – You photograph street art and reproduce it on a canvas with other images that you superimposed to create ‘art’ which you sell at a gallery. You are then surprised to receive a letter of demand from the street artist’s lawyer claiming a share of the sale. – You conduct a shoot for a magazine in an alleyway in Melbourne. In the background of the shot is some street art. Will publishing the photographs be an infringement of copyright? What if it is impossible to determine who created the art? – You take photographs of street art, frame and sell them.

  • ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2020 PRESIDENT's REPORT by DR. CATHY FRANZI, 8 OCTOBER 2020 I Would Like to Acknowledge the Traditional
    ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2020 PRESIDENT’S REPORT BY DR. CATHY FRANZI, 8 OCTOBER 2020 I would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land. Canberra, where I live, is Ngunnawal country and I pay my respects to the Elders both past and present. It’s been an unusual and difficult year for everyone. Intense bushfires, unusual heat and drought, the COVID pandemic and shutdowns have been disruptive to individuals and to communities and devastating to the arts sector, particularly the performing arts. The visual arts have crept along resolutely. We are at least familiar with spending time alone in studio spaces making with uncertainty. Galleries and artists have made use of online platforms to exhibit, finding innovative ways to communicate with video walk throughs and artist talks. Events are being held using platforms such as Zoom, as we are doing now, to keep the momentum going and survive, and perhaps thrive. However, I’m sure you miss as I do the ways we could meet together in person, such as the good old exhibition opening, and experience the unexpected connections made during ceramic festivals and events. For those teaching and learning ceramics, it’s been a particularly challenging year. But as we know making ceramics, working with clay, is a tough gig anyway. We’re used to it. Ceramics has taught me to be open to disappointment, resilient and to persevere. To pivot as they say, to find opportunities in the unanticipated. Potters have been making their work with water, earth and fire for quite a few thousand years and we will continue to do so.
